The Ancient Growth Diary of a Little Zombie

Huo Lingxing frowned upon seeing this and looked at the Secretary of the Central Secretariat with displeasure. He was about to speak when the Minister of Agriculture beat him to the punch.

"Lord Wang, why do you have to do this? I'm afraid you don't know that many foods and medicinal herbs are poisonous if used improperly, but as long as they are used in the right way, they can be eaten with confidence."

When everyone heard this, it seemed to be true.

The words of the Minister of Agriculture made several ministers who wanted to scratch their throats as if they thought it was poisonous put down their fingers.

The Secretary of the Central Secretariat obviously realized that he had been impulsive. After apologetically smiling and laughing a few times, he retreated to the back with an embarrassed look on his face.

"According to what you said, only potatoes can't be eaten raw. Can sweet potatoes be eaten raw?"

The emperor's focus was obviously different from those of the ministers.

Sang Tiezi half hid behind Huo Lingxing, nodded timidly to the emperor, with an expression of wanting to say something but hesitating.

The emperor raised his eyebrows and continued to ask in a very gentle voice:

"But is there anything else to say?"

When Sang Tiezi heard that he had more questions to ask, he looked embarrassed and strange. He hesitated for a long time before speaking weakly:

"Well... it's quite sweet if eaten raw, but... it makes you fart a lot and it smells bad..."

Some ministers nearby couldn't help but frown after hearing this and looked at Sang Tiezi with contempt.

How could this person speak so vulgarly!

The emperor responded with a smile in his eyes, saying he understood.

Then he looked at the baskets of potatoes and sweet potatoes on the ground, and a trace of regret flashed across his eyes.

If this divine seed could have appeared ten years earlier, he could have relied on the confidence brought by the divine seed to expand the territory of their Great Xia.

But now he is almost fifty years old and has long lost the spirit and energy.

The emperor couldn't help but look at his sons.

Forget it, I’d better not watch it.

The emperor's older sons were all holding a raw sweet potato, crunching it and enjoying the delicious taste.

The emperor looked away with some dismay at the corpse standing quietly beside him.

Comparing the two, he felt that this girl was much more obedient and pleasing to the eye.

He remembered what his brother had told him yesterday about the little girl's request.

Princess?

It’s not impossible.

Thinking of this, the emperor decided to personally ask the little girl what she wanted. In order to show his friendliness, he even put his hand on the top of the corpse's head and rubbed it.

Huo Yunting finished talking to someone and happened to turn around and see this scene. He didn't even have time to shout "No!"

Emperor: "Little girl, ah~~~"

As expected, the emperor took off.

Shi Shi calmly retracted his foot and looked up, his bright eyes meeting Huo Yunting's shocked and bewildered eyes.

Shishi smiled and tilted his head.

Hey, come and praise me, I have always done a great job!

"Ahhhh!"

"His Majesty!"

"Someone come! There's an assassin!"

"Your Majesty, Your Majesty, protect Your Majesty!"

......

The originally happy scene suddenly exploded after a moment of strange silence, and everyone was in chaos.

After all, the emperor's physical condition was not as good as Huo Yunting's, and he was not on Shi Shi's list of his own people, so he fell asleep as soon as he landed.

The officials and eunuchs quickly surrounded the emperor, leaving only the Huo father and son and Shi Shi's family.

The Huo family father and son looked at each other, Huo Lingxing also hurriedly ran towards the emperor, while Huo Yunting quickly flashed in front of the corpse.

Huo Yunting quickly glanced at the approaching Royal Guards, grabbed Shishi's arms with both hands, leaned down to look her in the eye, and pleaded in his anxious voice.

"Shishi, don't do anything. Just trust me, okay? I will definitely keep you safe!

Please don't do anything, okay?"

Shi Shi was also a little confused, but looking at those people who surrounded his family with swords and knives, Shi Shi felt the murderous intent emanating from them.

Shi Shi remained silent, his eyes becoming cold and alert.

Huo Yunting panicked upon seeing this. He looked at the three bewildered people standing beside him and growled:

"Quickly persuade her!

If we take action now, everything will be over!

I promise, I will bring you back safely."

Xiao Wang and Sang Tiezi looked at each other.

"You better keep your word!"

Sang Tiezi gritted his teeth and said something vicious, then hugged the corpse tightly in his arms.

"My daughter, be obedient. Fighting is not allowed here!"

"Yes, Shishi, let's trust your brother Yunting for once, okay?"

"Eighth sister, don't be afraid. If they dare to come over, I will kill them!"

......

In the end, after being persuaded by her parents, Shisi chose to believe Huo Yunting.

The result of believing this was that before they even got their official positions, the family of four was sent to jail.

And it was Huo Yunting who delivered it personally.

In fact, it’s not his fault. After all, judging from the current situation, this is the safest place for the Shishi family.

Who let Shisi kick someone unconscious?

If this happened outside, someone would chop him to pieces in a matter of minutes.

The Hall of Nourishing Heart.

Fortunately, the emperor had practiced martial arts for many years, but he had been busy with government affairs and his age in the past two years, so he was unable to do so and had given up practicing. However, his body was not too weak. After the imperial physician came and gave him a few injections, he woke up within an hour.

The emperor just opened his eyes in a daze and saw the queen sitting beside him wiping her tears.

Everything happened so suddenly that he didn't even know how he flew. When he woke up, he only felt a severe pain in his butt.

He opened his mouth and asked in a somewhat dry voice:

"Ruru, what's wrong with me?"

The empress's name was Yueru, and her mother's surname was Lin. The emperor and empress had a harmonious relationship, so the emperor usually called the empress by her nickname in private.

Upon hearing the sound, the queen turned her head to look at the bed. Seeing that the emperor had woken up, she excitedly threw herself into his arms.

"Your Majesty, you are finally awake! I was so scared!"

God knows how scared she was when the palace maid came to report that the emperor had been attacked and his life or death was unknown.

Seeing this, the emperor raised his arms and put them around her, patting her back gently with his big palms.

The emperor did not continue to ask the reason until the queen calmed down.

Only after the queen finished speaking did he realize that he was kicked away by the little girl.

"Where are they now?"

Even though that little girl committed a heinous crime, she can't die now!

The Queen did not know who the Emperor was referring to, so she could only report them one by one:

"The ministers have all gone back. Prince Yongchang, Yun Ting, and the other princes are all waiting outside the palace. The thief and his family have been taken to prison."

After hearing the last part, the emperor finally felt relieved.

"Call the father and son in for me."

The queen nodded slightly when she heard this, then stood up, bowed to the emperor, and walked out gracefully.

After a while, the emperor saw the door was opened again with a creak, and the father and son of the Huo family walked in.

The two men walked to the dragon bed. Before the emperor could open his mouth, Huo Yunting knelt down with a thud.

"What are you doing?"

The emperor was puzzled.

"Your Majesty, I am guilty."

Huo Yunting's tone was firm.
